I''m currently up at my parents'' place and away from my Linux machine. I''m trying to compile something I wrote for my sister''s MacOS-9 laptop using Cygwin''s GCC on my parents WinXP box. I''ve done a brief search on the web but I can''t figure out how to target another OS. Thanks for all assistance.
Linux and MacOS use completely different executable and library formats. Just isn''t going to work. The good news is that Macintosh Programmer''s Workshop is freely available from Apple''s website. It takes some learning but it shouldn''t be too hard, considering you must be familiar with Makefiles.

Can''t GCC Cross Compile though?

Yes, gcc can compile for other architectures. But AFAIK, it must use an executable and library format that gcc understands.
